On September 26, 2008, Burriss scored a run in a unique way. Bengie Molina hit a home run that was at first called a single. Burriss immediately entered the game to pinch run for Molina, and when the play was reviewed and called a home run, Molina could not re-enter the game to finish his home run trot. Molina was credited with a home run and 2 RBI, but Burriss was credited with the run scored. (The BR box score and the game logs for Molina and Burriss do not correctly reflect this unique event, but their season and career statistics are listed correctly.)
